- the heat transfer device comprises a second one
- Heat exchanger which is connected between two compressor stages and in the natural gas line.
- the LNG electricity is used directly for the intermediate cooling of the air compression in the recuperated gas turbine process.
- Maximum cooling in the air compression results in a minimum performance requirement of the compressor i.e. a significant increase in process efficiency. This is all the more important since the air compression takes place up to a significantly higher pressure than for the pure one
- Regasifying natural gas - such heat exchangers are also known as recuperators - results in cost and performance advantages due to the low expenditure on the material side.
- the LNG side is coupled to the working circuit, which must be taken into account in terms of safety.

- Circulation blower can advantageously be designed so that the nitrogen system pressure is above the LNG pressure, so that in the event of leakage in the LNG evaporator, nitrogen that is not critical to safety is transferred to the LNG side.
- the nitrogen circuit advantageously comprises a fifth heat exchanger, which on the one hand follows the third and before the fourth in the direction of flow of the nitrogen
- Heat exchanger is connected in the nitrogen line and on the other hand in the exhaust line. This allows the nitrogen already warmed up by the compressor air to be heated further.

- the eleventh heat exchanger for further heating the regasified natural gas can either be directly into the natural gas line or, if there is one Nitrogen circuit also be connected in this and continue to heat the natural gas indirectly via the nitrogen circuit.
- Exhaust gas heat can be used to the maximum, since in this case only the temperature limit of the expander, which is significantly higher than that, has to be observed for the heat transfer
- Position behind the first compressor air expander is connected and opens into the exhaust pipe on the outlet side.
- the object directed to a method is achieved by a method for operating a power plant with a multi-stage, intercooled compressor, a combustion chamber and a turbine, in which an outlet pressure of the compressor is chosen to be higher than a required one
- Compressor air is transferred to the natural gas.
- liquid natural gas is pressurized, regasified and then expanded to generate energy.
- regasified natural gas is heated by another heat source before and after the expansion.
- compressor suction air is cooled and dried with the aid of a water-glycol circuit.
- the power plant according to the invention does not require make-up water for its operation.
